18 JAN DA drops charges on police stabbing and burglar suspect

District Attorney Chesa Boudin enraged police brass and the department’s union this week when he decided to drop charges against a suspected burglar accused of stabbing an officer during an arrest last February in the Castro.But new photos and an internal police report from the case obtained by The Standard show that the encounter left the officer with minor cuts to his pinky finger and knee, while the suspect suffered a fractured left cheek bone and cuts and bruises to his head after being punched “15 to 20 times.”
The case serves as the latest litmus test for a district attorney facing a recall election this June. Police critics have accused the officers of using excessive force, while opponents of the progressive prosecutor view the decision to drop charges as another example of Boudin putting police and the public in danger.
